Promotion and networkingMain Challenges
• Food security is overtaking nutrition security
in the international and national agendas
• Biofortification and supplementation are
subsidised in place of stimulating
diversification of diets and making value of
indigenous or traditional species
• Horticultural fragmented sector has poorly
efficient lobbies

Promotion and NetworkingOpportunities
Making the new environment favorable in combining all added-values of horticulture in a less agriculture-competitive approach:
• With GFAR: promoting Horticulture for its environmental , socio-economic and nutritional services (Collective action on Agrobiodiversity)
• With FAO: promoting Horticulture for higher income for small scale producers (Save and Grow, Growing Greener Cities, Food for the Cities)
• With PROFAV: promoting Horticulture for its Health benefits (school gardening, diet diversification, good horticultural practices etc.)
